TimberTech Harvest+ Collection Awarded by Good Housekeeping
In a significant achievement for sustainable home renovation, TimberTech has proudly announced that its Harvest+ Collection™ has been named a winner of the
Good Housekeeping 2026 Home Renovation Awards. This prestigious recognition highlights the collection's impressive blend of aesthetic appeal, durability, and environmentally friendly practices. As home improvement enthusiasts seek products that balance style and sustainability, TimberTech has successfully emerged as a leader in composite decking solutions.
The Harvest+ Collection is part of TimberTech's advanced PVC decking line, which integrates
up to 65% recycled materials. These materials include post-construction vinyl that would otherwise contribute to landfill waste. This commitment to sustainability not only enhances the product's appeal to eco-conscious consumers but also sets a benchmark in the decking industry.
Award Selection Process
The Good Housekeeping Institute rigorously tests and evaluates home improvement products and services each year. The process involves not just the expertise of their engineers and product specialists, but also feedback from consumer testers who try the products in real-life scenarios. Key criteria for their assessments include quality, design, efficiency, sustainability, and overall value.
Dan DiClerico, the Outdoor Lab Director at the Good Housekeeping Institute, highlighted that TimberTech's Harvest+ Collection excelled in the
Sustainability category due to its high recycled content. The judges were particularly impressed by the performance and long-term sustainability of the Harvest+ materials compared to traditional options.
What Makes TimberTech Harvest+ Stand Out
TimberTech’s Harvest+ Collection stands out in both durability and design. Throughout extensive testing, experts noted that the appearance of the decking closely resembles natural wood, while eliminating common maintenance issues associated with traditional wood products. There's no need for annual staining or sealing, nor do users have to worry about splinters, making it an ideal choice for families.
Monique Valeris, Design Director at Good Housekeeping, praised the textured detail and timeless color options, particularly the
Toasted Wheat shade. She emphasized the collection’s visual appeal, stating that it not only looks polished but will also withstand the test of time. Additionally, the Harvest+ Collection includes a suite of advanced features such as:
- - Moisture and fading resistance
- - Enhanced slip resistance
- - Cool Touch™ technology which keeps the surface cooler underfoot during hot weather
- - Fire resistance to enhance safety
Every deck comes with a
50-year Fade & Stain Limited Warranty and a
Limited Lifetime Product Warranty, underscoring TimberTech's commitment to quality and longevity.
Boston-based contractor Marc Savatsky, who served as a judge for the awards, noted that the Harvest+ decking is far superior to many composite options he has worked with in terms of resistance to stains and scratches.
